Since they split the forums, we aren't getting the traffic we had before.
Some of the fellow XDAers have captured the Verizon KK OTA update in .bin format that is 24A. We don't know if it is final or what it contains. We have been unable to flash it or force an update.
If any one is familiar with LG on a dev level and want to offer assistance, please visit us here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2670441&page=60
Since the update is 24A, it might include some updates or features not in the earlier KK builds and could benefit all. More information is in the thread.
Hello,
I found the file "P996A03V1.0.0B24_MR_KERNEL.tar.gz" on the following website..
http://opensource.ztedevice.com/
When you select "Smart Phone" and then "ZTE A2017" there is a download link for the file "P996A03V1.0.0B24_MR_KERNEL.tar.gz"
Is this the needed source code for the kernel? A2017 or A2017G? A2017U has already released kernel source, right?
I hope it is something new.. @Unjustified Dev
I don't know if anyone had seen that yet. Good catch. There was only a release of B18 for the A2017U as well. I just rechecked that one, and now there is the B27 release as well.
@Unjustified Dev, that's two new kernel drops to incorporate now.
Hi guys !
As I'm still using my P769, and more and more old ROMs link are now dying (expiring), I find it very difficult to download ROM and tools for my phone.
So after spending a long time downloading all the currently still available ROMs and utilities, I've collected many ROMs and tools that you'll need if your old phone ever gone wrong and can't get support anywhere due to dead link.
I'm now reuploading all of it for longer storage time. Just in case someone might want to reuse the old phone for some other purposes.
Some ROMs and tools included :
AntonX's cm11 ROMS (most stable ROM I've used so far)
EdwinMoq CM12.1
EdwinMoq CM13.0
NAMELESS KITKAT 4.4.4
Bobz CWM Recovery Image (4.4.2)
TWRP 3.0.2.0
dsixda's Android Kitchen (Windows Version)
Phone's Driver, Source,...
(and many more).
[P769][ROMS and tools collection] Download Here (Update 24/11/2018) !
P/s : If anyone has some other ROMs or Tools for P769 that aren't here, feel free to send them to me and I'll add to the collection.
All credits go to their (ROMs and tools) respective owner. I do not own any thing/file etc. I just merely reuploaded it to different mirror.
If you're the owner of any file(s) here and don't like it being mirrored, please send me a PM for removal.
This is my first post, although I've read the rules thoroughly before posting, some might have slipped through. So if my post goes against the rules, please kindly let me know.
Thank you this is awesome!
As you all V20 owners know, there's only one kernel available for Rooted Stock Oreo ROM and it is MK2000. However it's a good kernel and its developer has put a great effort on it but unfortunately it doesn't function properly on H990DS variant. Some problems like intensive lags and battery draining are two major examples.
If you remember we had a good DOTS kernel in nougat. If someone could fork it for Oreo it would be great as well.
Anyways, here's what we need:
[*]Stock kernel based on H990ds Oreo sources (20a or 20b)
[*]Dirty Santa fixes applied (You can read about this in H990* root thread under TECHNICAL DISCUSSION section)
[*]RCTD, Triton and whatever related removed
[*]"ForceEncryption" and "dm(avb)verity" removed
[*]KCAL, EXFAT and USB Quick Charge support
[*]More CPU governors (We will talk about this in the group)
[*]Overclocked
[*]Make the project Open Source
If you think you can do something, PM me! I'll send you additional information required.
Also I'll give you a link for a Telegram group where you can share what you have and it can be tested out.
Anyone interested in testing potential builds, also contact me for the Telegram link.

After the H990DS variant, we can ask for the other variants if people support it!
So we are looking for money to pay a dev to make a good H990DS kernel (And after that for more models). This is important! Thanks for your collaboration.
Good work creating the thread.
Hope more people jump in
Thanks for pushing this, let's get some more life outta this phone and make rooted oreo usable.

We want the kernel to populate custom NTCODE (Being able to change ntcode for region changes)
Click to expand...

Hey there
What exactly does this mean? Aren't you able to change the NT-code as it is?
I've actually been wanting to change the region of one of my G5's, but simply changing the code did not do the trick.
I used the hidden menu method btw, where you can also change mac address IIRC.
I also fiddled with the two partitions; cust and OP. Doesn't seem to be it either. Probably something needed to be edited in misc partition or something as well.
And BTW, I'm not offering to make this new stock kernel. Though I did just now re-upload the v2.2 kernel, here:https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=297449
With some fixes and stuff. Not saying it's gonna fix 990ds problems, but at least it's out there for V20 users to be aware.

Hey,
the AutoMID option in h990ds hidden menu doesn't allow to modify anything. OP partition in v20 is a complete waste of space and full of junk stuff. We have edited the ntcode in misc by hex editor and have addressed the custom ntcode in cust to use the desired path, but the phone reads the ntcode from the modem as we can still see the factory ntcode in the hidden menu (SVC, Version Info). If we populate the custom ntcode at the kernel level (smem) maybe we can overcome this obstacle. Read this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/bounty-thread-lg-v20-root-h990ds-t3493062/post72323004
And thanks for the Re-uploaded kernel. It's more stable than the previous stable 2.2 build.
Personally I was using 2.2 beta 26 as it was working better than other builds, but I can confirm that the new re-uploaded build is slightly better than beta 26. Benchmarks: Antutu -> 2.2 beta 26 (156K) --- 2.2 Stable Re-uploaded (161K)
We would greatly appreciate if you could help us to fix some issues regarding the development of the stock kernel as you know how to deal with the dirty santa stuff. (We've found out that it's causing more issues than expected) If you're willing to guide us and tell us the steps I can send you the Telegram kernel development group link.
A noob question - to update the kernel, I just need to flash it followed by magisk, right?

If you're upgrading the current kernel just dirty flashing the new version over the old version followed by magisk is enough.
But if wanna flash a different kernel, you should first flash a clean bootimage then flash the custom kernel followed by magisk.
Question- how much do we need to raise to make this happen?
Additionally, can we specify that this not be specific to a single variant? You might get more donors.
(btw there's already enough bounty to send a dev a used unit to experiment with too! LOL)

We need to get something working first, then we will open the game to the other variants but we need help raising money to get this done, so if you care about a new kernel for your v20 please help us with the money now.
We have about $130 now. But it isn't enough for an expert dev to make this happen.
Currently we are dealing with touchscreen issue. LG sources are trash and a real dev knows how to deal with them.

Curious is anyone on a h990 has tried alpha kernel from my rom project. If you have let me know what was working and what wasnt.
Also why not mk2k kernel ? The dev has done a lot of work for this device.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
No we haven't tried that kernel. Kindly send me the boot image so I can test it.
About the mk kernel. It's the only kernel available for us, but we have some problems with it like general lagging, apps getting killed and memory problems. And these problems are more severe for h990ds variant.
I the end, if you can help us with kernel development (building or just helping to fix few issues), I can send you the group link.
UPDATE:
I flashed the h910 stock kernel inside the AO rom.
It has static screen issue. However I fixed it by covering the proximity sensor for some seconds. (However this trick won't work on h990ds kernels.)
Sims do not being read.
The UI was smoother comparing to MK kernel but it started lagging after a few minutes.
I can tell stuff were crashing in the background.
Hi Guys,
I am ready to become beta tester for this kernel. I have this device with root and its H990DS India version. I know bit about android and give you crash reports. Please post me link of telegram. I have already replaced its thermal paste to make it cooler and this mod really worked as now device lot better than earlier hot pot condition. Even with mk2000 kernel (great respect for developer) its standby battery sucks. I have Lenovo Z2 plus which also does have same Qc 820 and poor software but due to developer efforts now it is smooth as butter. Hope this kernel solves most of the problems and I am ready to dive into depths of kernel development to save this last of its kind removable battery super phone. Kudos to all developers.
I m also ready to become a tester
Count me in. I'll donate $20.
I found a sourceforge project with all sorts of motorola one stuff, including a few roms (aicp, lineage, pixel exp), TWRP and OrangeFox. Much more up to date than the versions posted on this board. It's pretty obscure so maybe some people may find it useful.
